S01-E03 - We continue our discussion about extended piano techniques with "Sabre Dance" by Aram Khatchaturian, fabulously arranged for piano 4-hands by Greg Anderson from the Anderson & Roe piano duo.  We show various ways of playing "glissando", which is a technique for rapidly sliding on the piano. And since the piano itself is a percussion instrument, why not add some additional percussion with a tambourine? All in all, extended piano techniques help make the piano sound much more like a full orchestra!
